The Apparition

This image is inspired by some of the blur art I've been seeing online.

My +The Arcanum cohort apprentice friend +Matvey Z posted an art piece that's b/w and it's ghostly qualities. He posted that he was inspired by +Roxanne Bouche' Overton's work. I'm inspired by Matvey's work.

I love how we're all inspired by each other.

I'm actually a couple weeks behind in my posts because I was ill and acquiring a new mobile phone, which is one of my art creation outlets.

The backstory on this image is that it's from a videogame my husband plays that I love to watch him play. The game is: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. The main character was down in this cave. When I saw the image I was like... "OMG I need to get this... it'll create a great art piece."

There's a new video game deemed to be released August 9th called No Man's Sky. I'm hoping to capture some awesome images for art in this game. I'm excited about this new game. I'll play it myself instead of watching my husband.

Wormhole

Appearing before Space Jammer on another galaxy adventure is this stunning view.

Grabbing a snapshot of this amazing and stunning wormhole before the ship ventures into it.

Once inside the wormhole there's no going back. Once through the wormhole it will close up and disappear. It's a whole new life.

Think twice or three times before entering.

The Gallery

Today's image is 24/52 week challenge.

Today I'm going to share something to stir your soul.

We put art in galleries on display. We like to parade through the gallery and gaze into the art. As we parade we're seeking the one art piece that speaks to our soul.

When that art piece catches our gaze we become entranced and paralyzed by it. It reaches deep into our soul and speaks to us. What does it say? What emotions does it conjure up. What memories does it bring?

I dream of my own art hanging there in The Gallery waiting for it to reach out and grab you and speak to you. Hoping for it to take you to a completely serene place. Even if just for a moment. What memories does it bring forward? Does it speak to your soul? What is it saying?

You're Invited To My Garden Party

Springtime is a great time for a garden party.

I like that phrase: "Spring showers bring May flowers!"

The dew sparkles on the flower petals as the rising sun bursts through.

The bright and brilliant colors dance in the sunshine as a cool morning breeze lightly moves through and kisses the blooms shaking them with excitement as they dance around.

The blooms burst with a wonderfully relaxing and serene scent.

Come and join me, won't you!?

This is image 23/52 week challenge. It's a rendition of spin and zoom.

I discovered this technique when a fellow Arcanumite posted an image from a project she's involved in using this same technique. I queried her about how she learned and if there were any tutorial videos available. She quickly shared a video. I then watched it and decided to investigate more videos on the technique. I found another one by the same creator of the previous I watched. I liked the teaching in the 2nd video better than the 1st. I quickly began playing with the technique with my dinosaur canon dSLR. I quickly realized that the sensor needs cleaning. I have to figure out how to do that. I defaulted to using my mobile phone and a specific camera app I like to use to create with. I came up with a few new art pieces using my mobile phone camera app. This one here is one of them.
